The last month of 2024 saw a surprising bounty of new releases, considering December is the winter holiday month. Well, I'm not complaining to have been able to listen to 47 new trailer music albums, I just hope folks from the production music industry got to take some time off and spend it with their families! Speaking of holidays, don't miss Thomas Bergersen's "A Christmas Carol". Besides that, the December selection offers just one magical fantasy album and a couple of epic fantasy ones. Honestly, I feel like some of the earlier months (including July!) had more to offer in terms of holiday atmosphere. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the final batch of trailer music releases from 2024!

As we entered the holiday season in North America, November saw a marked decline in the amount of trailer music produced. You'll find 47 new releases in this post nonetheless, which I hope satiates your trailer music thirst for the next month. November being the Thanksgiving month, you'll have no trouble finding albums with reflective, uplifting and inspiring music here. At the same time, with the approaching winter holidays, it is no surprise to see a couple of epic Christmas trailer music albums in the selection below either.
Alright, here comes the October deluge of trailer music – 59 new releases in total! Get ready for countless hours of epic, thrilling and inspiring music, as well as the occasional epic pop or cinematic americana album. Oh, and as you could expect in the month of Halloween, there is in increased proportion of mystery and horror releases! But most importantly, let me introduce a couple of newcomers to the blog.
With the summer over, we're back to over 50 new trailer music releases this month, 51 to be precise. The month of September brought us the first non-sound-design release from Liquid Cinema this year, and the first cinematic release from Noise Refinery in two years. Among the rest of the albums, you'll find some rather unusual genres, such as cinematic funk, as well as horror renditions of Christmas classics. But before you scroll down searching for these, let me quickly introduce Montage Music, as this is the first time I'm writing about this boutique trailer music company. Although they specialize mostly in sound design, a few of their albums are actually suited for listening, with the latest EP also being the case. Alright, go on now and explore September's goodies!
The summer continues with 47 new trailer music releases from the month of August. Besides the usual genres, you can look forward to discovering some albums incorporating cinematic americana, neofolk, neoclassical dark wave, and a couple of epic hip-hop albums as well. This time around, I would like to introduce Kerry Muzzey, an American composer who has written music for movies, TV shows, documentaries and even a ballet. In addition to that, he has released several contemporary classical and trailer music albums over the past two decades, including a series of "Trailer Music" albums debuted in 2007 and with the fourth and the latest installment released in 2019. His most recent album – the second volume of the "Docu" series, released in August – is a compilation of tracks that ended up not making it into any visual media, but I would say the music is no less worth a listen. Anyway, check out for yourself!
Welcome to the first trailer music news post of 2024! Curiously, just like last year's January post, this one also brings you 51 new releases, which I think is a fantastic start to a new year of cinematic music! Amadea Music Productions had a particularly productive month, having released 9 albums, which must be the most I've ever seen a trailer music company put out in a single month. Another highlight of this month is Jo Blankenburg's Dune-inspired album Sirocco, somewhat bizarre, but mesmerizing and definitely epic, and a perfect listen to get yourself pumped for Dune: Part Two coming soon to theaters! And it seems like some trailer music companies started releasing albums of triumphant and anthemic music geared towards the Olympic Games taking place this summer.
Get ready for a year-end trailer music galore! In November I discovered 52 new releases, which is the most in a single month this year and, in fact, the most I've ever mentioned in a post on Trailer Music Hub. And not only that, I also have 4 introductions of first-timers on my blog to make! The first label whose catalog I only listened to recently and which released a new album in November is Amplitude, a trailer music label of Adrenalin Production Music Libraries. Amplitude released the first 3 albums back in 2017, and the number has grown to 34 since then. Next, I checked out OneMusic, a production music company founded in the late 90s and acquired by Universal Production Music in 2007, boasting hundreds of albums produced over the two and half decades of its existence. OneMusic's albums are typically made publicly available not long after their initial release to the industry.
Welcome to the 30th monthly post on my trailer music blog! You'll find in it a list of 44 new releases, but first I have four introductions of newcomers to the blog to make. Andreas Kübler is a German composer, probably best known as the former creative director and lead composer at IMAscore, but making music for other trailer music companies too, including Colossal Trailer Music and Glory Oath + Blood. In June he released his second solo EP, after a debut EP in 2020 that had come out just shortly before I started this blog. Next, Instrumental Core (the alias of Piotr Adamski) adds the sixth album to his collection, the last one before that also having been released just a month before the inception of my blog. Instrumental Core, however, entered the trailer music scene with his debut "dubchestral" release already back in 2012, after which he started closely collaborating with Really Slow Motion on his subsequent albums. The viking composers of Epic North – a Finnish trailer music company that also collaborated with Really Slow Motion in the past – are back from their Fimbulvinter slumber that lasted not the proverbial three, but five, consecutive winters. Just in time to celebrate the company's 10th anniversary with a new epic album! And finally, Immediate Music has released their first public album since 2020. Founded all the way back in 1993 by Jeffrey Fayman and Yoav Goren, Immediate Music is a veteran in trailer music, however, until recently, there seemed to be no new music produced by the company after 2020. That seems to be changing now though, as I've noticed albums from the past three years being retroactively added on the BMG Production Music website linked above. So, there might be more "new" Immediate Music music (uh, that sounds awkward) to look forward to in the near future! Phew, this was probably the longest intro paragraph I've written in a post... but don't get used to it! Go ahead and enjoy the new music now!
